Visible Light Communications
The project concerns a wireless light transmission communication system. Generally known as Visual Light Communication (VLC) or Light-Fidelity (Li-Fi), common LEDs are used at the same time for enlightening and data transfer. Information is transmitted by a modulation of light intensity of LEDs, and generally the variation is too fast to be perceived by sight. This kind of optical communication system has risen particular awareness from the international scientific community, due to their low energy consumption and their non-interference with other radiofrequency devices. At the Maker Faire, an interactive installation will show an Arduino-based system, which people can interfere with to see what happens where the data flow is interrupted or disturbed by external agents.
